Highest Tempurature For Platies?

[xoedusk]

If one wanted to treat ich in a tank that also has platies, what is the highest temperature allowed? Platies and Harlequin rasboras.

My plattys were ok at 28-30 degrees when I had to treat tank for whitespot. It stayed at this temp for 10-14 days without problems.

I used Interpets whitespot meds as instructed & it cleared problem.

Don't know how the Harlequin rasboras would cope with this temp but dwarf gurami, corys, neon & CAE wre all ok so as long as the increase/decrease isn't too rapid it should be ok for them.

Good luck.

PS use an air pump & stone as temp & meds will decrease oxygen in the water.

I have rasorbas in my tank and they were fine at 30C for about 10 days while treating whitespot. My fish are in my profile.
